Ikkis Writers Discuss Dhurandhar Comparisons and Dharmendra's Role in Final Film

The film Ikkis, depicting the life of Param Vir Chakra recipient Arun Khetarpal, has sparked comparisons with Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar, which the writers Pooja Ladha Surti and Arijit Biswas addressed by highlighting their distinct themes and moral codes. Dharmendra's final performance as Arun's father involved key improvisations, including a symbolic hug scene, despite initial internal debate about his casting. The filmmakers emphasize the coexistence of diverse cinematic narratives and the film's message of empathy amid conflict.
